Galway board hoping backroom reshuffle will appease players

Galway County Board officials are hoping the possibility of alterations to Anthony Cunningham’s backroom team will appease the players and persuade them to get behind the manager.

It is understood Cunningham may be persuaded to change the make-up of his assistants in an attempt to encourage the panel to agree he should remain on in charge for the 2016 season.

In a bid to be conciliatory, the individual or individuals would be agreeable to the squad. Since last week, the names of a couple of hurlers who retired from the inter-county scene in the last five years have been mentioned as potential selectors.
